3 years of cutting edge multidisciplinary research on the Don Catchment culminates in the CatSci Conference

Posted: 10/09/2009

The Catchment Science Centre at the University of Sheffield has the pleasure in inviting you to the forthcoming conference "CONTRIBUTIONS OF RESEARCH TO CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT" to be held on 2 December 2009 at The Showroom in central Sheffield.

Launched in 2006, CatSci is a multidisciplinary research programme in catchment science funded by the European Commission under the Marie Curie Early Stage Training Fellowship scheme. The project aims to deliver research to support Integrated Catchment Management as requested by current water management policies such as the Water Framework Directive. This conference is the culmination of the intensive research carried out over the last three years as the project draws to a close. The conference offers a chance to hear leading research in catchment science, and to discuss implications to integrated catchment management, as well as to hear guest speakers Anna Jöborn, from the Swedish Environmental Research Institute and Armin Peter from EAWAG, Switzerland. We hope you will join us at The Showroom, from 9.30 - 4.00.
